Abstract |
The Catalog presents a list of key publications produced by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The listed publications are agency guidance documents and directives produced by the Office of Waste Programs Enforcement (OWPE) for use by EPA Headquarters and Regional staff. OWPE, a division of the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER), manages the program that seeks responsible party involvement and pursues cost recovery for Federal response actions. The publications in the Catalog are intended to assist implementation of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) and the Resource Recovery and Conservation Act (RCRA). OWPE supports the implementation of CERCLA and RCRA enforcement programs by developing program strategies, formulating budgets, providing written guidance materials, and overseeing the progress of the RCRA and CERCLA programs in the Regions. Each entry in the Catalog includes an abstract or description of the content of the document, and indicates the document distributor. Separate indices are provided in the Catalog to enable the user to locate documents by title, subject, or document number. Order forms and complete instructions for obtaining documents are included. |
